Project Enduring Pulse — restored long-horizon archive, website release 3, 14 September 2026.
ARCHIVAL SOURCE — READ THESE CORRECTIONS FIRST
The baseline CSVs rank PULSE first in 114 of 120 scenario/value comparisons and FOURTH in the other six. Statements saying second in source prose are incorrect. All six losses occur in scenario 19 (Weak institutions). The Scenario Atlas and Top-2 counts already reflect this vulnerability.
This is the baseline long-horizon model, where PULSE is assigned high effectiveness on capabilities its institutions are intended to provide. Those effects are assumptions, not independently established results. It is conditional systems analysis, not independent validation. In the skeptic sweep, roughly a 15–20% discount to PULSE-specific institutional benefits removed its aggregate modeled advantage over the strongest liberal-democratic comparator.
The restored v2 campaign is reproducible with the provided runner, not the original scripts’ defaults. Data are aggregate outputs, not individual trajectory logs. The older non-v2 baseline is retained for provenance; a sample rerun showed small discrepancies and that earlier campaign is not certified here.
2,100,000 reduced-form samples are randomized parameter draws with analytically accumulated hazards, not simulated Markov paths. 138,840,000 dynamic periods is a nominal loop count, not independent civilizations.
All parameters, scores and thresholds are model assumptions. Reproduction is internal computational verification, not empirical forecasting, external validation or proof of constitutional effectiveness. The v1.2 integration variable bundles effects and does not test the exact v1.2.1 non-coercion boundary. PULSE-Lite is a post-hoc hypothesis, not an adopted Charter.
External references in this historical source are not all verified; use the website claim register and citation audit for bounded current claims. In particular, its vague Paluck citation and numerical constitutional-lifespan claim are not endorsed by the website. Original source wording follows unchanged.
